Quick Summary of the idea
I don't know if this has been suggested at all, however here is my suggestion anyway.
The Galaxy map needs some sort of information summary system. What I propose is when you click on a star it will give you a small summary of the type of star; amount of stations and the amount of planets within that star system.
In more depth
The proposed system would also need to take into account star system ownership, so:
When star system is owned by your own or a friendly faction:
When star system is owned by an enemy faction:
When neutral:
So the information would be displayed like this:
- Star type
- Planets in system
- Total stations (Friendly) (Enemy) } Friendly and enemy tags in systems where applicable.
- Total Ships (Friendly) (Enemy) }
I have no idea how easy this would be to implement and it is only a quick post so any issues you have on balance should be raised. Thanks for reading.

The proposed system would also need to take into account star system ownership, so:
When star system is owned by your own or a friendly faction:
- The Summary would include total amount of ships (perhaps total, friendly in green brackets and enemy in red brackets)
- Station summary would include a similar feature to the coloured brackets mentioned above
- All of this as well as the other basic summary information mentioned above.
When star system is owned by an enemy faction:
- When owned by an enemy faction the summary would only include basic information about what is in that star system
When neutral:
- When a star system is neutral you will be able to see if the stations are friendly, enemy or neutral.
- However you will not be able to see whether ships within that sector are friendly, enemy or neutral.
So the information would be displayed like this:
- Star type
- Planets in system
- Total stations (Friendly) (Enemy) } Friendly and enemy tags in systems where applicable.
- Total Ships (Friendly) (Enemy) }
